The text of the Example is garbled, and does not fit the
illustration. Among other problems, points C and D seem to have
been switched, either in the text or in the illustration.
The circle is A.B.C.D, and his centre is E: the angle on the centre
is C.E.D, and the angle on the circumference is C.A.D t their commen
ground line, is C.F.D.
